Autumn Splendor - The Pillow Party

When all was said and done,

I made thirteen autumnal pillows.

Each top was pieced and quilted.

I cut more leftover fabric from the resource boxes

to serve as the pillow backs -

envelope style.

Each pillow was then bound with leftover binding

and when I ran out of suitable leftovers,

I made another nine WOF strips into binding

for the final five pillows.

Thirteen pillows times four corners each

equals fifty-two mitered corners.

That's a lot of binding!

This particular pillow is my "favorite' of the group.

I love the backing, the background behind the tree,

the binding, and the way the tree floats above its setting.

These three pillows are in the sunroom recliner

where DH likes to sit and listen to his audio books

or watch streaming videos on his tablet.

(the quilt on the back of the chair is Topsy Turvy,

with its back folded out)

These four reside on the right-hand end of our couch,

while these four live on the left-hand end.

(the quilt on the back of the couch is Cherie's Churn Dashes)

And the final two pillows are in my recliner.

(the quilt on the back of my chair is Plaidmania -

and on the quilt rack behind my chair 

you can see Metamorphosis, Breathtaking,

Retired, and Sixteen by Sixteen)

And now, I am calling 

this particular pillow project 

D-O-N-E.
